Journey

I have been writing poetry since I was nine years old. My poetry is in essence, my diary. My thoughts come out in rhyme(most of the time). All these feelings that I had built up in me, filled my soul and poured out in ink onto paper. I have found a great site, innerchildpress.com...And my life is once again changing. My lifelong dream of finally getting published is being filled at this moment. There are beautiful souls on this site who are very supportive. I would like you to join me on my journey. Please be patient with me, blogging and websites are all new to me. I have lived the life of a poor and starving artist. Before this journey began, I was extremely old-fashioned...All my poems were in a binder, hand written. I will share all my emotion and an occasional poem or two...Welcome to all who stop and visit!!! At this moment this is all very surreal to me...I feel as if I am in a dream state. I am more excited than I could possible express in words!

About Me

My name is LauraSue. I am first and foremost a poet and a painter. I love our Lord, Jesus Christ but it has not always been that way. I used to be an addict/alcoholic and I was so lost. I had a traumatic childhood and a rough life. In childhood, my father was my one saving grace...My Daddy passed away in 2009. I miss him so much, he was such a support in my life. He was always so proud of me. I have one child, my beautiful son who is now 19. He is such an amazing young man. Just to have him in my life is such a blessing. I met the love of my life...Mike. We shared three beautiful and painfully short years...I lost my love to cancer in June of 2010. My poetry is a journal of my life. Every pain, every happiness and every heartache has a poem. I am emotional and passionate. I have a child-like fascination with the world. I find pleasure in simple things. My motto is "less is more". This is how I live my life and I thank God for all my talents and the fact that he helped me survive the past...
